Gardening Quote of the Day

"You Might be a Redneck Gardener If... ...you mow your lawn and find a wheelbarrow. ...you think a chain saw is a musical instrument. ...you know how many bags of fertilizer your car can hold. ...you've ever cleaned your house with a leaf blower. ...you empty the trash when you have enough to fill up the pickup. ...you can amuse yourself for more that an hour with a hose. ...you've been cited for reckless driving on a riding lawn mower. ...you move your weed-eater to take a bath."

(Mike Garofalo, (with apologies to Jeff Foxworthy))
